Why Did We Draft Fred Davis?

1) [drive 1] First and ten (he's the left TE) - Zone right, Rabach and Thomas and Kendall are all instantly at the second level knocking heads. Davis has the front side sealed.

2) [drive 2] First and ten (he's the left TE) - Naked Boot pass, and the Cowboys play it well. The pass complete to Cooley in the flat with Campbell under pressure. Davis was running the "over" route, or the ten-twelve yard cross. He might have been open, but it didn't matter because of the playcall.

3) [drive 3] First and ten (he's the left TE) - He's in a pattern. 5 man rush, major pressure by Ratliff, but at least Rabach doesn't fall down and can stay with him. Campbell under duress throws in Cooley's direction.

4) [the next play] (he's the only TE on the right, Cooley is split wide) Toss right, Fred Davis easily beaten by DeMarcus Ware.

So he was in on two running plays, did his job once vs Ware, and got killed the other time vs. a better player. On the passing plays, his released looked fine, and Campbell just got crushed off the snap.

I'll see if he plays any in the second half, but I'm not sure he will, DT was getting all the reps at the end of the half.

Dude, you are an extremely extreme fan.
